"Long Story Short" is a new one-act musical written by DANTE.
"Long Story Short" tells the story of Lucia, a single mother who has a complicated, fast paced, and messy life. Her sister is selfish and has a complete lack of boundaries, her ex-husband is a distant and terrible father, her boss is 10 years younger than her and, if we're being honest, is too ecentric for Lucia's taste (although that may be the resentment), and her son is increasingly worried about his suicidal boyfriend. A full, realistic, and darkly-comedic story gets told with themes of love, loss, family dynamics, depression, queer youth, and coping mechanisms.
